Song information
[edit | edit source]The first track, "Intro", contains a sample from the documentary Hoop Dreams (1994) of William Gates, one of the basketball players followed in the film, speaking from his recovery room after surgery. The commentary forms the lyrics to the track. The track "Cold Water Music" contains a sample of "Maureen in the Desert", written by Carter Burwell and taken from the soundtrack to the film Psycho III (1986). The extended dialogue in the track "Demonique" was sampled from the John Carpenter horror films, Halloween (1978) and Halloween II (1981). It features (primarily) the exchanges between the characters of Dr. Sam Loomis (Donald Pleasence) and Sheriff Leigh Brackett (Charles Cyphers). The track "Ain't Got Time to Waste" is featured on the soundtrack of the European version of the video game Tony Hawk's Pro Skater. The track “Force” includes a sample of Spirit's “Mr. Skin.”
